NVA tactic . The north Vietnamese army sent the Vietcong to hit and run us during Vietnam. Mostly farmers and kids . Then when the real fight was on (Tet) the NVA sent their real fighters. It was and still is an effective way to wear down the enemy and keep the good troops in reserveOh by no means was that a legit test. When I was in near ambushes it was something terrifying. It wasn’t the AKs fault they missed me. It was the fact that their training was garbage AF. Or they were 68 years old or 16 years old. Militia etc.
When I ran across ex-republican guard they could place some accurate fire.
When I fought legit Talib or foreign fighters from Pak they could lay it on me too.
The young men and old men who were yanked into the war by the above players didn’t have much of a chance.
Not only that but as an American I was LOADED with force multipliers;
NVGs
CAS
Ordnance
And Still they were a pita to fight lol
